why??!

[potas]

why is it that my baby is asleep but I am wide awake and have been for the last hour and a half - stressing about Christmas and family stuff and mostly about lack of sleep! Ive tried counting sheep and thinking about nice things and just lying there - Ive given up now. All I can think is that by tonight i am going to be so knackered.

Me too! 15mo DS is a hardcore early riser and only sleeps past 6 on a good day. This morning he slept til 6.15, but I was wide awake at 5.24 worrying about the fact I was awake at 5.24! Why??!

Snap. Bing awake at 4.55. No reason, apart from worrying that DTs were going to wake up early, which they didn't!

Write a list of things that need to be done with regards to Christmas. (add a couple of things that can be done in 5 minutes/are already done, so you can tick them off quick!).

Not wanting to be a drug pusher, but kids' Piriton always works for me....

This seems to be happening to me atm too. Wish I could take some of mt sleeping pills but breastfeeding and co-sleeping so not a great idea!
